Bunga the Wise[]
When Bunga is told by Rafiki of how he is the smartest animal in all of the Pride Lands, he sets up an advice booth in Hakuna Matata Falls. Oryx hears that the best way for him to get back to his herd on the other side of the canyon was to jump across. But when he attempts it, he winds up falling just underneath on a narrow ledge. The Lion Guard arrive and Ono swoops down to him while Kion and Fuli grab an antler each. Ono assures them that they hardly ever drop anyone, which causes Oryx some discomfort. Despite his fears, the Guard successful bring him back to higher ground. When asked what he was doing, Oryx explains his plans to them. When asked if Bunga was behind the advice, he confirms it. He then watches the Lion Guard leave to speak with the honey badger himself.Songs[]
